			3-9  is the power.  lowest power is 3 highest 9. 
 
3-9x40s are the most common hunting scopes around.  you will never go wrong with a leupold.  
 
3.5-10x40  is basicaly just the more exspensive 3-9 scope.  this scope also would be right at home on the 270wsm. 
  
 
i actualy ran a 3-9x40 leupold on a 270wsm as a lighter weight easy cary  pletny of moderate range punch kinda rifle.  killed quite a few varmits but never did take a deer, though i did pass one up  gal der it. 
 
 
good luck 
Evan
